Finding a company that pays for participating in bounty ethers is a great success. I think it's wrong if you create your own coin, then you should maintain its value and convince investors and bounty hunters that it will be successful in the future. If you pay ETH instead, the reliability of your project will cause a lot of doubts.
I think that this will be also very helpful for projects, finally, they would not complain that bounty hunters dump the price.
Yes, they dump the price, but bounty hunter owns only 2% of all coins, so it can´t have such impact on the price!
It's rare and difficult to find a project that provides payments using ethereum. because we know that they give an average payment using tokens from their total supply or sales
